[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#750910: Status of sitplus (Was: Bug#750910: sitplus: Please update to use wxwidgets3.0)

[Andreas Tille]

Hi Olly,

sitplus has changed a lot upstream.  The packaging is quite some effort
I can currently not do.  First libsitplus needs to be packaged.  Since
Luis has commited previously that he also has no time I'm not sure how
quickly we can come up with a solution.

Just to let you know.

Kind regards

        Andreas.
